Electric skateboards continue to gain popularity as a fun, efficient, and environmentally conscious form of transportation and entertainment. However, price is often a major barrier. Therefore, an affordable electric longboard becomes the first choice for riders seeking a premium feel and high performance. That's also why the OMW Lancer electric skateboard is quickly gaining attention and will be the best electric longboard of 2025 under $800. Let's explore why it's becoming the go-to choice for discerning riders this year.
What Makes the OMW Lancer the Most Desirable in 2025?
As discussed in a previous blog post, Esk8 enthusiasts prioritize battery life and range, deck flexibility and comfort, and overall reliability when selecting an affordable electric longboard. OMW Lancer seems to have struck a chord with riders by excelling in the key aspects they value most.
Optimized Battery and Unrivaled Range:
A larger battery means longer range, and OMW Lancer delivers with a top-tier 14S2P, 504Wh battery pack built from high-capacity 21700 Samsung 50S cells. This setup provides relentless power with zero voltage sag and a reported range of 28–34 miles, making it ideal for long commutes and extended cruising sessions. It comes stock with a 4A fast charger, powering up fully in just 2 to 2.5 hours. Altogether, it sets a new benchmark for performance in the affordable electric skateboard.
Superior Deck Construction for Comfort and Control:
Tired of “standard” narrow shape electric longboards? OMW Lancer stands out with its 10.2-inch wide carbon composite deck featuring a concave design for a strategically shaped foot platform and precise flex control. OMW decks have long been praised for their unique and comfortable design, and the Lancer continues that legacy with thoughtful optimizations that elevate the riding experience even further.
Switch setups in seconds and unlock three distinct flex profiles on a single board by simply adjusting the wheelbase:
- Shortest: Delivers high-speed stability for adrenaline-packed rides
- Longest: Maximizes flex for laid-back, comfortable cruising
Smooth Operation and Reliable Performance
Smooth Operation: Powered by high-performance Hobbywing 4235 (5255) motors and a custom-tuned Hobbywing 9028 ESC, OMW Lancer delivers high torque, ultra-smooth acceleration, and responsive braking — the ideal combination for a truly premium electric longboard experience.
Reliable Performance: Equipped with 9.25" forged trucks featuring CNC TKP baseplates, OMW Lancer uses a dual-personality dynamics setup — softer bushings up front and stiffer bushings in the rear — to deliver a ride that’s predictable, stable, and confidence-inspiring for riders of all skill levels. For enhanced durability and comfort, OMW Lancer rolls on MAD Wheels (105 MAD Wheelz V2 or MAD MAX 125), providing an exceptionally smooth ride across a variety of terrains.
